Amber Hicks of Huer Huero Road just opened a fabulous store downtown Santa Margarita, across from the Ancient Peaks Wine tasting room called Seven Sisters Trading Post. Please take the time to stop in and say hello. She serves the best coffee and will soon have sandwiches and salads made by Colby Jack Cafe in Atascadero. Her store is gorgeous and unique. Check it out!

according to my sources, the Thank You Scott Bond Day was a huge success and hundreds came to honor our retiring Pastor. The Church leaders are now searching for a replacement. It will be next to impossible to find anyone as wonderful as Scott, but the search is on!
